A college professor who accused a Connecticut state trooper of racial profiling saw her claims fail when audiotape of the stop proved she was lying, police said.

According to Fox CT, Minati Roychoudhuri, 32, was driving on a highway on May 9 when she was pulled over in the town of Wethersfield. She was cited for failure to drive in the established lane. A month later, Roychoudhuri sent a letter to the Commissioner of Public Safety claiming that the officer had racially profiled her.

“The policeman asked me if I could speak English and if I knew why he had stopped me. I said, “yes” to speaking English and “no” to why he had stopped me,” she wrote in the letter. “The officer did not give me any reason as to why had stopped me. His asking if I could speak English shows that he had racially profiled me and was not able to give me a concrete reason for stopping me.”

When Roychoudhuri, who teaches at Capital Community College, in Hartford, gave an in-person interview in regards to her letter a week later, she repeated her claims of racial profiling and that the officer did not explain why she was stopped. She also signed a statement that it is a crime for her to make any claims that she does not believe to be true in an effort to mislead a public servant.

Most State Police cruisers, including the one that stopped Roychoudhuri, have video and audio recorders to record all motor vehicle stops. An Internal Affairs investigation examined the dash cam audio.

In the recording, the officer asks if Roychoudhuri knows why she is being stopped. When she says no, the officer is heard saying, “Okay. There’s that big gore area with white lines painted across it and you cut in front of it, in front of me, thinking it’s a lane or something. You have to wait until it’s a dotted white line.”

The investigation concluded that the officer never asked Roychoudhuri if she spoke English and that he clearly explained to Roychoudhuri why she was pulled over.Roychoudhuri was subsequently arrested for giving a false statement in the second degree.

It's about fucking time. Our college faculty lounges are straight up infested with these goddamned liars.

I'd just love to know what she teaches at this college I've never heard of. And I weep for the students, with their highly impressionable minds full of mush, who are exposed to the toxic waste that must spew from her maw in the classroom on a daily basis.

The part I don't get. Is asking if someone speaks english really the end of the world? Maybe he would have spoken to her in spanish if she did not or he would get an interpreter. Are hispanics known for illegal lane changes? How would that even affect the incident? Whining PC assholes are the plague to US society.

She won't lose her job. They'll justify her despicable actions by saying the racist and sexist white male dominated society drove her to it. You know, the society that enabled her to be a college professor rather than living in poverty in whatever diseased 3rd world shit hole she came from.
